Pope Francis declares evolution and Big Bang theory are real
Found on The Independent on Wednesday, 29 October 2014
The theories of evolution and the Big Bang are real and God is not “a magician with a magic wand”, Pope Francis has declared.
The Catholic Church has long had a reputation for being anti-science – most famously when Galileo faced the inquisition and was forced to retract his “heretic” theory that the Earth revolved around the Sun.
That should make creationists angry. Good.
